The vinyl single feature See No Evil on the A Side that Glenn Laughlin explains more about, Usually I write very, very quickly these days, but the chorus of SEE NO EVIL was circulating in the back of my mind for years.  I tried a few different verse ideas, but it never really clicked for me.  I finally came up with the current verse and wrote some uncharacteristically topical lyrics.  I wrote a bridge too, but I couldn’t [Read More]

The Cherry Bluestorms deliver modernized 60’s vibe with their Bad Penny Opera Album

April 27, 2014

I have really been enjoying the great work by The Cherry Bluestorms on their latest album, Bad Penny Opera. This concept album which tells the tale of a young girl embarking on a journey to find one’s self and start anew as she leaves behind her home set in 60’s Britain. The album brings to life their psychedelic 60’s inspired rock pop to life with vocal harmonies that feed your soul and an infectious pop rock edge.  You can’t help but fall in love with the mod vibe wrapped in an uptempo rock folk tone. One thing is for sure, it is an album filled with upbeat songs that are perfect for becoming the playlist of your life. A very prominent Brit pop style shines through and you might even think you are listening to a lost Beatles album or on occasion The Small Faces as well as with a Bowie-esque edge.  Their psychedelic pop and heavy guitar based melodies captivate you as you get enmeshed into the story of this young girl with big [Read More]

The Smiths + Dexys Midnight Runners and a side of The Cure = Apollo Junction. Great New Music

Or if I am feeling good and need music to just energize me and complement my good mood, I put the right songs on to do that.  Well, today I was in one of those where I am literally in a doldrum type of state and went to do some work.  I put on some of the music that was given to me to check out and I have to tell you…. it was like magic… My energy level quickly rose,  I couldn’t help but smile and instantly feel good. I love when music can take you to a great place, especially when it is the first time you hear someone.  Today I have Apollo Junction to thank for the great escape of their music! These 5 guys from London are really something to listen to.  As their bio describes perfectly, “Apollo Junction born into the [Read More]
